About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Make the world a better place by collecting fuzzy things!
ABOUT ME
I'm an art therapist, before becoming an art therapist I was primarily an artist. I'm a big fan of social justice, queer rights, and making art. I love to make/eat cupcakes, run around the house after my dog or cats and organize things. I enjoy french fries, beer, and friends. In combination this can lead to much joy and happiness. I'm not a fan of avacado, stepping in poo, people who are mean on purpose or mayo.
PHILOSOPHY
I like to be a rebel with a cause. I'm all about making things work and getting crafty about it.

Music, Movies, and Books
I love anything related to Tim Burton. I'm a fan of Harry Potter, Pans Labyrinth. Books, Cunt, A Time Travelers Wife, art books... I'm into a variety of music, I like the Gossip, Le Tigre, Tegan and Sara, Stereo Total, Grand Master Flash...
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I've seen the grand canyon, lots of places in Europe, I've seen my friends have kids and become parents. I've completed a masters degree, seen artwork move someone to tears, I've made things out of molten metal! I'm not sure there is much more than the molten metal.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can share things about art, materials, social service. I've got a lot of info about being queer and loving queers. I would like to learn about alternative methods of healing, eastern philosophy, cooking, more ways to keep the earth be healthy. I like to learn about people and why they do what they do, what makes them happy, all that.
